Food 1

‘Growl’

‘Growl’

To clear awkwardness in the atmosphere, I said

“I am going to see if I could find any food”

Hearing me, Armelia quickly said,

“I will also come with you”

I only nodded to her and started walking back in the way from which we entered.

After walking for few minutes, we reached the water area, which is a part of the pond and also which contains the entrance to the cave which is below the pond.

Since we need some food, we need to exit the secret cave and go to the other side of the wall. I just hope that the 'White Fang Wolf’ and its pack of wolves are not waiting for us outside.

'Growl'

Again, my stomach made rumbling noises as an indication of hunger. So, I took a deep breath and jumped into the water.

With my increased stats, my senses were improved too which made it easier to swim. To be honest, I don’t know swimming, all I have learnt the basics in the past life but in this life, I did not have any reason to learn or there was not any need to learn.

Due to improved eye sight, I can see things clearly inside the water, although under water is not so bright, but still I managed to locate a hole.

Seeing the hole, I moved towards it and got into it.

As I was swimming forward; I could see light in front. So, I hurried towards the light and after few moments, I realized that I exited the cave and entered the actual pond that is visible in the forest.

So, I swam towards the top layer of water, to catch a breather and also to see if the ‘White fang wolf’ and the pack of wolves are still around.

As I was nearing the top of water, I activated ‘Stealth’ skill, to hide my presence as much as possible.

Then I got my head out of the water and started breathing greedily, as I am not a swimmer and it was difficult to move in the water. And of course, I also looked around to see if there is any threat in or out of the water.

Well, looks like the cost is clear. For now, there is no danger, so I can only get land first.

Slowly I swam towards the shore and did not let my guard down, as I don’t want any ‘surprises’.

‘Splash’

After getting out of the water, Armelia also came out from the pond. There was a little thing that caught my attention, that is, I did not feel the existence of Armelia behind me.

From the timing when she and I came out of the water, there is hardly 3 to 4 seconds' gap. And clearly my senses are improved to new heights, and even if I was having hard time to swim but still, I could not feel the existence or presence of Armelia behind me.

‘Growl’

Once again, my stomach distracted me from my train of thoughts and brought back to me reality, that is ‘Hunger’.

‘Growl’

Then came Armelia’s stomach growls.

“Sorry...”

Armelia’s face got red due to shame and she apologized for the growls.

‘Swaaa...’

‘Crunch’

As I heard the sounds of bushes and snapping of branch, I immediately became vigilant and ignored Armelia and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

When I looked at what it was, I can only smile and compliment my luck a bit.

It was a wild boar. I was clearly thinking of what to eat or where to find something to eat. And coincidentally a wild boar a.k.a ‘food’ came finding way to us. Now, all I have to do is kill it and plan a. barbecue.

The wild boar had a size of about 1 meter and it looked a lot fat, which is like all the fattening that it has gone through is a preparation to become food for us. The wild boar had a peculiar look that is different from the normal wild boars that I have seen or known. Normal wild boars will have fur either in red or brown. But this wild board has blue color fur which makes it looks like a new breed or new type of wild boar.

Just as a security check, I used ‘Observation’ skill on the wild boar to check for any abnormalities and to increase the ‘Observation’ skill level and also to see what level it is.

‘ding’

‘wild boar’

‘Refinement Stage Monster’

When I saw that the wild boar is at Refinement stage, a smile appeared on my face. As I felt that I have already won the fight before it even started. As, I have already killed 3 Refinement stage guards and even had one on one combat with a Refinement stage guard and I won.

==================

Author’s Note:

Sorry guys, I was busy with work and did not get time to create new chapters. Well, this corporate work is new to me and I get easily tired when i return home. Which makes it harder to create and upload new chapters.

To be honest I spend about 10 hours at work and it takes 3 hours of travelling to and fro. So, I hardly get any time for working on new chapters recently. But I promise to make it up to you guys, as I will be releasing 2 chapters on Saturday and will create at least 6-7 chapters in next two days as I have holiday, which can act as a regular upload for you and by the time you are with those, I will be ready with ne chapters.

So, sorry and thank you guys for understanding.

And

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Hope you guys have a great 2021 and you can keep up your New year resolutions. Or may even break them.
